Bin Packing Nesting
In this Grasshopper tutorial, you will learn how to place contour sections inside a group of rectangles and use the OpenNest plugin to nest them within a sheet. We will also use Galapagos to optimize the output.
Parametric Wall
In this Grasshopper tutorial, you will learn how to model a parametric wall using a base surface or graph mappers.
Circle Pack Mesh
In this Grasshopper Kangaroo example file, you can circle pack a mesh using the “TangentIncircles” component.
Contour Techniques
In this Grasshopper contour tutorial, we will learn how to extract a series of solids from a part of a mesh by defining the direction and length with a single line.
Rectangular Fractal Art
In this grasshopper3d tutorial you can learn how to generate a parametric rectangular fractal art by using the anemone plugin and extract some useful data for fabrication.
Image to Strips
In this Grasshopper Example File, You can transform a bitmap image in to wavy strips.
Dendro Waffle
In this grasshopper example file, you can create a waffle structure by using the dendro plugin to make the Parametric shape.
Text on Mesh
Now that you have learned how to design a parametric text on a mesh you can use these 3 example files to even learn more.
Plan Drafting
In this Grasshopper Script, You can add details to your plan by providing lines for the wall, doors, and windows.
Optimize Nesting
in this grasshopper OpenNest example file, you can put every two peices of sections side to side to reduce the cutting length and optimize it.
Ngon HexDivide
In this grasshopper ngon example file, you can design parametric hexagram bricks by using the HexDivide component from the ngon plugin.
Parametric Wall
In this Grasshopper Example File, you can design a parametric wall and nest the pieces by using the Open Nest Plugin.
Radial Waffle Table
In this Grasshopper Example File, you can model a parametric radial table and then use the Open nest plugin to extract the curves for fabrication.
Lloyd’s Voronoi relaxation
Lloyd’s algorithm, also known as Voronoi relaxation, finds evenly spaced sets of points in subsets of Euclidean spaces. In this grasshopper example file you can create a Voronoi pattern by using the Anemone plugin combined with the Lloyd’s algorithm.
Parametric Cones
In this Grasshopper example file you can use the Kangaroo2 Plugin combined with the Open Nest plugin to circle pack a series of cones on a surface.
Paneling Fabrication
In this grasshopper example file you can convert a Nurbs surface to triangular panels and then use some connectors for fabrication.
3D Puzzle
In this grasshopper example file you can model a laser-cut optimized 3D-Puzzle and also extract the joints, the final curves and the nesting 2D sheets.
Voronoi Panels
In this grasshopper example file you can model a series of random voronoi panels and extract the final curves for fabrication.
